I have an 11 and a 4 year old daughter, they always fighting and competeing for who can get more attention. My husband sent me this comic this morning and asked if it reminded me of anyone. Yup those are our girls, the only problem is that we can't figure out who is who.
Do you have more than one child? Does this remind your of them? Can you decide which is which.

I have 5 kids (ages 12,9,9,8, and 7)
yup I can see a couple of my kids in that
my 12 year old and my 8 year old
they are constantly at each other
it seems they arent happy unless they are pissing each other of or hurting each other

I completely understand what you are saying, I don't know kids do that, if you don't want to talk them than just leave them alone, don't pick on them, don't try and controll them just let it got!

I guess picking your battles is not something that an 11 year old understands.

I think preteens are just programed to have it their way or no way at all LOL

I have five children who are ages 17,15,11,7 and 2.
And the 15 and 11 year olds are always constantly at each other throats. Half the time i think my daughter does it because she thinks its fun to wind her brother up. But he does give as good as he gets.
But if anyone outside the family starts on them it is a different matter they will always stand up for each other.
So it does remind me of them.

That is funny. I tried explaining that the girls but I am no sure if the older on got it. I grew up with 3 brothers and 2 sisters and we tortured each other but God forbid anyone else tried to mess with us because they had the whole clan on them.

Unfortunetly, the 11 year old does not feel the same way about the 4 year and thinks it is funny when other kids mess with her and does not defend her. I have a serious problem with that.

Sadly, my son is probably destined to be an only child. Cute cartoon, I truly wish he had someone to fight with. I had 4 brothers and my man had 2 sisters. He's got lots of family but no siblings. Someday, when they are grown, they will be the best of friends.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Bytemi (590)   ranked 40 out of 14,917 in parenting  1 year ago

I hope so. There is a lot of resentment between the girls. More so from the 11 year old who thinks that the 4 year old is trying to take over her life.

I guess only time will tell.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Irishfrndly65 (7367)   ranked 676 out of 14,917 in parenting  1 year ago

Hmmm, thinking about my friends who have lots of kids. I wonder what they would do? I have an egroup, should I ask them for you? Couldn't hurt. Just let me know and I will do a post to them, they may have some ideas.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Bytemi (590)   ranked 40 out of 14,917 in parenting  1 year ago

Yes, that would be great.


myLot reputation of 92/100. Irishfrndly65 (7367)   ranked 676 out of 14,917 in parenting  1 year ago

Done, we will see what they come up with. wink

I have a 6, 3, & 1yo. The oldest two are usually bickering over something. Then the 3yo is bicker'n w/ the lil guy cause she still wants all her baby toys to herself though she's outgrown them. It's never ending I swear.


myLot reputation of 96/100. Bytemi (590)   ranked 40 out of 14,917 in parenting  1 year ago

As a general rule, yes it is never ending. Which is torture for the parents, so I guess the kids win all around.

Mine was 5's girl and 3's boy, and they're always playing together..a minute later turn out to be fighting and screaming, all day. Those on the comic were girls, I'm not familiar with it though..cannot decide which is which. keep posting my friend.

I have only one child well actually a 2 month old baby. I can say this I do not want another one its just too much work and I am a person who enjoys her freedom. Who knows maybe this is because I am a single parent and constantly feel trapped dont get me wrong my baby is the light of my life just wish I was older than 20 when I had her.

i have 3 kids, a 14 year old daughter, a 12 year old son and another 1 year old daughter...at first i never had any problems with my 2 grown kids. they'd fight as normal siblings would but nothing serious. and now they both adore their little sister and take turns taking care of her. however, my 2 grown kids are now arguing with each other a lot, still nothing serious and it seems normal but it get get a bit annoying sometimes.
